These quotes are in no particular order and they deal with a variety of subjects. Wherever there is a blank line, a new thought begins. These nuggets were gleaned from all over this site. Most are from --- tinkering with this site.
Therefore, in my personal
experience, and doing a little math, I predict that every person with their finger out, pointed at somebody with "greed" on their lips is actually the greedier party. I think what they are actually trying to say is "I want your stuff. But I don't want to do what you did to get it."
Rather than seeing themselves on a path where there are lessons ahead and lessons behind, they are certain that they have arrived at the knowledge destination. Further, now that they know all that there is to know - anybody that has a thought that is not perfectly aligned with their own is wrong.

Once in a long while, somebody says they are not comfortable with forums or they really need an immediate

"s.h.i.b." is "stoned hippies in the basement pontificating about the way things ought to be."
I am glad that there are folks offended by this approach - those folks are clearly not a fit for these forums and now they will stay away.
I will continue to try and drive traffic to this site - in search of that one person in ten thousand that is a fit for our little community.
An exaggeration, I hope.
Rather than standing on a soapbox and trying to tell people to "stop being bad", I am trying to build a better world one brick at a time.
Some sites on the internet will publish anything that anybody submits. This is not one of those sites.
I still do lots of stuff for free. And I'll continue to give stuff away for free. And I'm going to try to pull in
enough money to move all of my projects forward. I have things to prove.
